transport cloak question - Stabby_Dave - 02-01-2016
I've got a snub cloak and this fits in place of the c/m.
My question is - where does it go on a transport? If it follows the same rule, does this mean that 5k ers without a c/m cant fit one, or does it go in the "equipment 1" slot?
Cheers.

It also goes to the CM slot, meaning most of the transports with 4000+ cargo space (or any transport without a CM) can't mount it. You won't be able to use a snub cloak on your transport though as it's not the right type. You need a transport cloak on transports (I believe it's Mk III) and if you use it, cloaking batteries will take your cargo space. It's generally not worth to have a cloak if you wish to trade with the ship, although some people put ~200 cloaking batteries which is enough to get through a system unnoticed or escape a pirate. Overall you'd be losing at least 700 cargo, on top of having a relatively average cargo space (transport cloaks are mostly used on 3600 cargo space ships).

also perhaps worth noting that you can mount cloaks that will not operate as long as you have hold space. that can lead to some confusion

Ooh strewth!
I think I'll give it a miss.
Cheers, guys.
